Freedom of Information Act 2000 Request

The total costs of seven prosecution cases.

Request

What was the total cost of the prosecution of the following individuals:-

A Ali Mubarek Ali M Islam Chowdray M Ali Sutton M Younis M Khan T Ahmed

Response

Generally, where a request is made regarding prosecution costs, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) will endeavour to provide counsel’s costs only. This is because the CPS does not record time spent by internal lawyers, paralegals and administrative staff on a case by case basis. We can therefore only provide counsel costs.

Counsel fees for prosecuting the above named defendants came to a total of £17,203. This amount includes VAT.
